Oh, lord, Vortex - I want to smite the idiots for you! Ack!
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I was in the office at six this morning. Stupid DH needing to be in early. It's unnatural! It's nearly eight and I've yet to do any work though, so there's that.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
2 words for you. SPIKE STRIPS.
That's a very pretty mental picture, but I feel sure it isn't quite practical for the pedestrian vs. Segway traffic issue.

Spike strips (Spike? stripping ... now THAT's a happy place!) while tempting, aren't the answer ... 'cause I'm walking on the sidewalk as well. Just heard this morning that, although there's a law, seemingly there's no one to enforce it. So ... maybe I'll start wearing a bike helmet and pads when I go out on the sidewalk.
Trudy, glad your mother's well enough to be home, although if she'd stay in bed it would be a good thing.
Vortex, isn't there something you can do to bend the stupid students to your will? I like the idea of making them sit around someplace waiting on your pleasure. Maybe make sure that their presentations come last and have to be hurried through? sabotage them (mess up their color schemes, rearrange the slides, etc.)?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Jars, if you are around, I just sent an email to you and the Somervillistas.

Aw, crap. I was going to say I'd replied, but I see now I only managed to reply to you, and not the list, because I'm smart. So you'll be getting two emails. Sorry.

Mostly lurking...
And I just replied to your replies! What an exciting morning!
